All returns are historical annual compounded rates of return and reflect changes in unit value and distributions reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or administrative fees, payable by unitholders, which would have reduced returns. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Your unit value and investment return will fluctuate. Important information about any mutual fund is contained in its simplified prospectus which should be read carefully before investing.
